Am I right in thinking that the resistive component of the speaker's impedance is effectively in series with its inductance? Say, 5 ohms for an 8 ohm speaker? If so cable resistance is not so frightening for domestic runs. It's not so difficult to provide negative output impedance to counter

If you do not do something tricky with the amplifier-- and no commercial consumer audio amplifier intended for universal use does this trickiness, or none I am aware of-- then the cable impedance operates as part of the amplifier output impedance. This means that the amplifier will not be flat
